Old Bagan, Myanmar

Screen Shot 2016-08-09 at 10.05.56 PM
August 7, 2016 Lulu
There is a lesson I keep learning, first at the Vatican in Rome, then in Greece, and now in Myanmar, and it is: Cover Thy Knees. Looking back, the skirt I wore in Greece, (where I was chased out of a mountainside monastery by a... Read More

Sandhamn Island

June 30, 2016 Lulu
If famous couple wanted to have private wedding, then Sandham Island would be the place. The amount of travel would be a deterrent even for the most ambitious paparazzi. First, one must fly to Stockholm. Then, take a hour plus bus ride (or... Read More

Marrakech

morocco atlas mountains
February 9, 2016 Lulu
Just a short drive from the busy Marrakech is the stunning Atlas Mountains. The journey from Morocco over the mountains to the city of Quarzazate offers a different perspective from the spice markets and city camel rides. There are a... Read More

The Lake District, UK

Looking for Daffodils, Ees Wyke Country House, Cumbria UK, Lulu-Atoll
June 20, 2014 Lulu
The Drive from Edinburgh to the Lake District is around three hours. I stayed at Ees Wycke Country House - a B&B in Ambleside, with offering a nice English breakfast. Although I may not be the best judge, I was mesmerized by the... Read More

Palm Springs 2014

The Siguaro Hotel Palm Springs
January 11, 2014 Lulu
I had a long list for a one night stay in Palm Springs: A visit to the Palm Springs Tourist Center; a tour of the Mid-Century homes; sit by the pool and catch up on five years worth of reading; dinner at the Viceroy; get a decent... Read More

Venice Beach

A Tranquil Venice Beach?
January 9, 2014 Lulu
It's not often I go to Venice Beach. More often than not, a visit to Abbot Kinney takes up most of the time. But this trip I took a long walk on the usually busy boardwalk and surprised to find just a handful of... Read More

Tulum, Mexico

Tulum, Mexico
December 19, 2013 Lulu
Our girls weekend in Tulum was long overdue. The relatively self contained strip to yoga class and juice-bar hop. That is just what we did. We stayed at the eco-resort Cabanas Tulum, its sister higher end resort beside is called Beach... Read More

Alaska

Alaska
June 29, 2013 Lulu
If you can manage to get a window seat on the inbound flight to Alaska - I highly recommend it. Keep your camera in hand for the stunning view of choppy mountains, ribboned with snow. Anchorage, Alaska Anchorage Highlights: Kaladi... Read More

Seward, Alaska

The Drive to Seward
June 29, 2013 Lulu
The drive from Anchorage to Seward is possibly better than the town itself. The road follows the water for the first portion of the drive offering breathtaking views of mountains across the water. Seward is a town caught in a time-warp.... Read More

Head across the water towards the mystical mountains and at the based lies an artist colony of sorts called Halibut Cove. Homer and Homeward... Read More

Jamaica

March 15, 2013 Lulu
The $30 cab fare for the 10 minute journey from the Montego Bay airport to the Half Moon Bay Resort is off-putting, to say the least, but once there and under the sun it is almost forgotten.  The resort spans 400 acres - but it is... Read More

Antigua

Antigua
December 27, 2012 Lulu
It is pouring rain when I land in Antigua, but by the time I reach the hotel, the sun is high in the sky, and welcoming. I'm here for a eight or nine days of peace, quiet and soul searching.  For the first time in my life, my plan is not... Read More

Jerusalem (…Masada, the Dead Sea & Eilat)

Church of The Holy Sepulcher
July 21, 2012 Lulu
Five days in the promised land is not a lot of time. My trek takes me to Jerusalem, Masada, the Dead Sea and Eilat. It is too late for Hebrew lessons, so I grab a copy of Exodus and toss it in my travel bag for the flight. The overnight... Read More

Elephant Ride at Amer Fort, Jaipur

Elephant Ride, Amer Fort, Jaipur, India
August 20, 2011 Lulu
The steep journey up to the top of Amer Fort is by Elephant ($20) and possibly the most expensive thing you will do in India, but fun, I think... maybe, more accurately, in hindsight: once I was actually on the Elephant  - I was... Read More
